2843 The Eve of the Race War (3)

The woman's face was expressionless. She just stared at the armor box on the unfamiliar man's back.

The two men frowned and then heaved a sigh. One of them took off his armor box and held it in his hand. "We went to your residence and didn't wait for you to come back. We didn't know that you were here until we asked around. This is Zhou Mosheng's armor box. He killed seven explorers on the battlefield and died of exhaustion. Before he died, he looked up at the sky and shouted, "If there is a next life, I will definitely not fail you."

The woman's lips curled up slightly, and a trace of tears fell. She said, "That's enough."

Seeing that Lin Adi stopped talking and just looked at the peach blossom tree quietly, they looked at each other, sighed, and quietly left.

Two hours after the two of them left, Lin Adi came to the recruitment office with the armor box. "I'm a peak-level Explorer. I want to participate in the battle."

The recruiter asked, "Name, address, anyone else at home?"

Lin Adi said lightly, "Lin Adi, 1,099th Thousand Flower Road, Peach Blossom City, alone."

…

Everyone had their own stories. There had never been a shortage of people with stories in this world.

Some people fought for their dreams, some fought for others, and there were naturally some who didn't dare to fight. More importantly, it was fine if they didn't dare to participate in the battle, but they often found excuses for themselves.

For example, in recent days, there had been some criticisms about Luo Xiaobai.

At a certain dinner table, someone said, "I won't participate in the battle anyway. The human race's casualty rate is as high as more than 20%. The Sky Opening Realm powerhouses of the City of Origin were all wiped out. I heard that those Sky Opening Realm powerhouses are all in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm or perfected Star Transformation Realm. Logically speaking, it's impossible for our human race to win, but now, not only have we won, but not a single human Sky Opener has died. Master Human Emperor must have helped them. However, Master Human Emperor was helping the Sky Openers, so he naturally couldn't care about the ordinary battlefield. This shows that in a real battle, Master Human Emperor can't take care of everyone."

Someone said in a low voice, "I heard that all of this was arranged by the war commander, Luo Xiaobai. It's said that she has many strong masters in her hands, but she doesn't let them attack. She just uses ordinary soldiers to fight. She's beautiful, but she's really ruthless!"

Someone said, "I heard that too. Luo Xiaobai is already using our human warriors as bait before she reaches the front line."

"That's right. This is only a battle of tens of millions of people. If a race war breaks out, there will be a battlefield of billions of people. Under such complicated circumstances, there's no way to care about every soldier. Then we can only fight head-on. That's simply taking our lives as a joke."

"Alas, I think Master Human Emperor is really blind this time! This time, Master Human Emperor said that he would start a race war."

"Sigh! I know that Master Human Emperor has a goal, but his goal might not necessarily be our goal. Anyway, I won't go to war."

Of course, these people were just talking and didn't dare to spread these words. After chatting for a while, they went home. However, this time, they suddenly discovered that their demon plants were gone! Where were their demon plants?

Someone shouted, "Law enforcement team…"

A moment later, when the law enforcement team arrived and saw this scene, they sneered and said bluntly, "Did you discuss the Human Emperor and the war commander in private?"

They looked at each other in bewilderment. "Does it matter?"

A member of the law enforcement team sneered. "Have you forgotten that these demon plants are all followers of Master Human Emperor? You're criticizing the Human Emperor. These demon plants know what you're talking about, so they just ran away. This is already giving you face. Come register and explain the reason."

Someone was stunned. "Did I hear you wrong?"

The law enforcement team member said, "No, you hear me right! Okay, the matter has been roughly cleared up, but I have to remind you that anyone who criticizes the Human Emperor and the war commander will be recruited as soldiers. You guys, come with me!"

"Huh? Why? What did we say? How can you compulsorily recruit us as soldiers?"

"Why? Don't we even have the freedom of speech?"

The law enforcer asked, "Why? It's just meant to let you truly understand how cruel the battlefield on the front line is. As for freedom of speech, you can talk to me about it after you experience the real battlefield. You don't know anything. All you know is spreading nonsense and panic. You still want to sit behind the human race and enjoy your peaceful lives? Don't worry. It's not just you. There are many people like you. You are not alone."

After a while, this group of people was escorted away by the law enforcement team dejectedly. As for resistance, it was impossible. If they dared to tell others that they had criticized the Human Emperor and the war commander, they might be directly beaten to death. Therefore, rather than resist, they would rather join the army.

…

After days of mourning, the sadness brought about by the war in the front line was gradually replaced by the fear and anxiety about the coming tidal wave.

The people in the Raging Sea had never experienced tidal waves. They only knew how to fight according to the descriptions of the humans in the Chaotic Wasteland.

One month Later.

There was only a month before the arrival of the tide wave, but the distribution of resources for resisting the tide wave hadn't started yet. Gradually, some people began to worry.

"What's going on? There's only one month until the tidal wave comes. Why haven't the Clean Stones been distributed yet?"

"It's not that the Clean Stones haven't been distributed. It's said that the Lava Giants, the ferocious beasts affiliated to the Yin-Yang World, the Forest of Terror, the Insect race, and the Undersea Human race have all received the Clean Stones. Now, only our human race hasn't received them."
